who_o be_v his_o and_o who_o be_v holy_a i_o e._n in_o office_n and_o function_n as_o the_o next_o word_n plain_o declare_v and_o who_o ought_v to_o approach_v near_o unto_o he_o i._n e._n as_o a_o priest_n to_o offer_v sacrifice_n burn_v incense_n and_o perform_v other_o sacerdotal_a function_n and_o indeed_o the_o lord_n show_v it_o with_o a_o vengeance_n by_o the_o dismal_a destruction_n of_o these_o unhallowed_a rebel_n and_o so_o you_o see_v how_o these_o rebel_n here_o most_o profane_o pervert_v and_o abuse_v god_n sacred_a word_n because_o all_o the_o congregation_n be_v holy_a as_o be_v separate_v from_o all_o other_o people_n by_o the_o choice_n of_o almighty_a god_n to_o keep_v his_o commandment_n and_o ordinance_n therefore_o by_o this_o equivocate_a trick_n and_o shift_n they_o will_v have_v set_v up_o this_o whole_a congregation_n to_o stand_v in_o competition_n with_o aaron_n for_o the_o priestly_a office_n and_o so_o have_v thrust_v he_o out_o of_o that_o eminent_a place_n in_o the_o church_n to_o which_o god_n have_v call_v he_o and_o by_o another_o religious_a trick_n not_o unlike_o this_o they_o give_v a_o heave_v at_o moses_n their_o prince_n and_o governor_n for_o the_o lord_n be_v among_o they_o and_o therefore_o there_o must_v be_v no_o moses_n pretend_v here_o the_o honour_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n for_o therein_o lie_v the_o force_n of_o their_o argument_n the_o lord_n be_v among_o they_o by_o day_n in_o a_o cloud_n by_o night_n in_o a_o pillar_n of_o fire_n and_o at_o other_o time_n in_o glorious_a appearance_n upon_o special_a occasion_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o derogation_n from_o the_o honour_n of_o almighty_a god_n that_o such_o a_o inferior_a as_o moses_n shall_v take_v upon_o he_o and_o exercise_v authority_n when_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v present_a and_o here_o most_o impudent_o they_o abuse_v god_n honour_n to_o cover_v their_o unworthy_a and_o base_a practice_n for_o they_o can_v not_o be_v ignorant_a that_o god_n himself_o have_v impose_v this_o office_n of_o government_n and_o superiority_n upon_o moses_n and_o that_o with_o great_a reluctancy_n on_o his_o part_n and_o have_v see_v it_o confirm_v to_o he_o by_o many_o sign_n miracle_n and_o wonder_n in_o egypt_n at_o the_o red_a sea_n and_o in_o the_o wilderness_n usque_fw-la ad_fw-la stuporem_fw-la naturae_fw-la

seem_v good_a to_o the_o wisdom_n of_o almighty_a god_n to_o govern_v this_o inferior_a world_n by_o second_o cause_n so_o that_o as_o he_o dispose_v and_o order_v the_o vegetative_a nature_n as_o herb_n and_o plant_n and_o other_o fruit_n of_o the_o earth_n by_o the_o notion_n and_o influence_n of_o the_o heaven_n and_o element_n and_o the_o animal_n or_o sensible_a creature_n by_o the_o

pleasure_n 49.23_o it_o can_v be_v no_o derogation_n from_o his_o honour_n or_o glory_n that_o moses_n be_v lift_v up_o above_o the_o congregation_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o have_v it_o be_v praejudiciall_a to_o his_o honour_n the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n can_v have_v dispose_v otherwise_o of_o the_o government_n of_o this_o world_n but_o yet_o religion_n and_o god_n honour_n be_v glorious_a show_n to_o dazzle_v the_o people_n eye_n that_o they_o may_v not_o pierce_v into_o the_o depth_n of_o their_o ambitious_a design_n and_o therefore_o they_o cry_v out_o all_o the_o congregation_n be_v

to_o wrap_v out_o a_o place_n of_o scripture_n too_o as_o the_o devil_n do_v to_o our_o saviour_n but_o most_o miserable_o wrest_v and_o abuse_v to_o serve_v their_o own_o lust_n as_o we_o must_v
